Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 1285: Chapter 737: Qualification

Chapter 1285: Chapter 737: Qualification

The Spirit Beast Clan is gone.

In this universe, among the remaining powerful factions are the Human Empire, Ancient Mechanical Clan, and Star God Race.

These three powerful races never appeared during the battle between Su Yu and the Spirit Beast Clan previously.

But Su Yu doesn’t think they were cowardly.

If they were so easily cowed, they would have been annexed by the Spirit Beast Clan long ago.

When the Spirit Beast Clan’s Book of Narrative expanded to a range of a hundred billion light-years, it stopped—not because it couldn’t expand further, but because further expansion would invade the territories of the other major races.

Even the half-transcendent Spirit Beast Clan dared not provoke the remaining few major races, showing their strength.

These major races are surely watching from the sidelines, collecting intelligence and data.

After all, the transcendence process initiated by the Spirit Beast Clan is a rare event, perhaps encountered once in millions of years—a realization to cherish and gather data, not waste.

Even Su Yu has deeply imprinted in his consciousness all the performance data during the Spirit Beast Clan’s transcendence process, as experience and reference.

If he wishes to transcend, he too must have his own path to transcendence.

This path of the Spirit Beast Clan seems feasible, but Su Yu disagrees; abandoning wisdom and self, even if one transcends, what meaning does it hold?

Though transcendence renders any logic irrelevant, wisdom and self will not be lost, but theoretically—yet Su Yu is unwilling to gamble on this possibility.

Su Yu stands quietly in the void of the universe, beside him the massive cosmic cavity left after the Spirit Beast Clan disappeared—a hundred billion light-years in scope.

Within this vast range, there is no material, light, celestial bodies—only Su Yu alone.

In such an environment, Su Yu feels an unprecedented solitude, as if between heaven, earth, and the universe, he is the sole life, a solitary consciousness.

It seems life and universe, everything, all are meaningless; only transcendence is real.

With a slight movement of intent, Su Yu ignores this feeling, unaffected by it.

He understands this emotion does not truly stem from himself; it’s not that he suddenly bees sentimental, but it is the residual effect following the Spirit Beast Clan’s failure in transcendence.

It’s not that the Spirit Beast Clan didn’t perish pletely, but before disappearing, they engraved their path to transcendence in this void, like their “last testament.”

Any life that es here will be influenced; if their will is not resolute, their power not strong enough, they will be affected, embarking on the same path to transcendence as the Spirit Beast Clan.

This “last testament” bears no power at a narrative level; Su Yu can erase it with a thought.

But Su Yu, upon consideration, decides not to do so; despite the Spirit Beast Clan being an enemy, their exploration of transcendence deserves Su Yu’s respect—for this testament should remain as is.

And Su Yu, beside this “last testament,” quietly contemplates his own path to transcendence.

Currently, his Book of Narrative is at full level, able to destroy and create universes within a millionth of a moment.

Presently, he only needs some Time to recover the powerful forces within the lower narrative layer.

Thus, he need not urgently restore his strength; first think clearly about the path ahead.

To explore his own path to transcendence, one must first understand: Why transcend?

“I think, therefore I am…”

Su Yu murmurs.

This brief phrase, Su Yu first truly understood when he separated from the Primordial Universe and arrived at the “Existence Ruins” following the destruction of the Infinite Universe.

In the Existence Ruins, there is essentially no normal space-time, matter—everything presents in the most elemental “existence” state.

In this state, maintaining one’s existence is simple: “thinking,” I think, therefore I am.

At that time, Su Yu believed existence to be the primal force of all things, I think, therefore I am as the ultimate truth.

But as Su Yu encountered the narrative layer, even crossed it to arrive in the current universe, he understood.

“I think, therefore I am” is not some ultimate truth.

The narrative layer transcends all, controls all; even your thoughts might not originate from your heart, but be written, controlled by some existence in the upper narrative layer—even consciousness itself might just be an illusion, a written program.

“Such a ‘you,’ how can it account for ‘I think, therefore I am’? If your thoughts aren’t your own, can you be sure you truly ‘exist’?”

Su Yu, within his heart, endlessly questions himself.

Simultaneously, he peruses his own Book of Narrative.

His Book of Narrative, after the Spirit Beast Clan vanished, has returned to normal, recording very detailed and logically plete stories.

Su Yu doesn’t read others’ stories, only his own.

From when he traversed to here, up to now, the Book of Narrative contains every detail.

This degree of detail is startling because… even the minutest psychological activities are recorded.

If reality were a story, naturally there would be “psychological depiction.”

Thus, all of Su Yu’s psychological activities are recorded within this Book of Narrative; even the slightest unintended thoughts are captured without omission.

So, the more Su Yu reads, the more startled he bees.

The Book of Narrative can record psychological activities to such a detailed extent; are these activities truly from his heart, rather than written by some unknown entity?

This question lacks an answer, even seeming somewhat paranoid.

Given Su Yu’s special essence, scripting him is exceedingly difficult.

The detailed psychological activity in Su Yu’s Book of Narrative exists because it’s his own Book of Narrative, akin to his autobiography, his notes, naturally detailed.

Other books of narrative don’t possess this capability.

Theoretically, Su Yu need not worry about his psychological thoughts being scripted.

But Su Yu previously witnessed narrative pollution from the Spirit Beast Clan; while they didn’t directly script Su Yu’s thoughts, they altered him through indirect means.

Nearly causing him to bee a brainless Spirit Beast Clan member.

This shows scripting Su Yu is difficult but achievable.

If certain powerful beings in the upper narrative layer could acplish this, might they script Su Yu into a fool?

Actually, under normal circumstances, Su Yu wouldn’t be fixated on this.

But now, contemplating the path to transcendence, this issue must be deeply pondered.

Not fixating only arises from incapability to fixate.

After all, few qualify and possess the capacity to ponder the path to transcendence.

And now, Su Yu possesses the qualification.

“I think, therefore I am, yet my thoughts might be controlled by the narrative layer.”

“Therefore, I must transcend!”
